The first monument of 2024 is almost upon us and leading the charge for Lidl-Trek will be one of the dark horses for victory, Mads Pedersen.
Pedersen is one of the few riders to be viewed as a viable contender to the likes of Mathieu van der Poel and Tadej Pogacar. The 28-year-old former world champion has been in electric form to start the season, adding six victories to his palmares and a pair of GC triumphs at Tour de la Provence and Etoile de Bessèges.

Pedersen won't be alone though of course and in Jonathan Milan, Lidl-Trek have a second potential challenger, especially after the Italian's impressive form of late that has seen him take a pair of stage wins at Tirreno-Adriatico and the points jersey at that race. Completing a strong team, Tim Declercq, Ryan Gibbons, Alex Kirsch, Toms Skujins and Jasper Stuyven.
Lidl-Trek for Milano-Sanremo 2024:

- It's wild that a guy with such fantastic bike handling skills has crashed hard in three important MTB races. If that isn't a very clear sign that says 'just stick to the road', then I don't know what is.
santiagobenites25-05-2025 - If Del Toro doesn't fall off the bike or get sick he is going to win the Giro. He looked like he was freewheeling when everyone else was on the limit. His riding style reminds me if Tadej.awp25-05-2025
- Well this aged bad and fast lolHoopoeChai25-05-2025
- These roadies can't hack it on the Trail 😁 #getwellsoon 👍
leedorney25-05-2025 - Primoz! very bad luck... I hope the rest-day will be enough for him to recover from the many crashes (3 in race and 1 doing the TT reco).
maria2024202425-05-2025 - noooo, no more. No one expect one day race. Lately, he doesn't even race 1 week tours. It's a fact. I don't understand why his fans get so upset about the description of facts.maria2024202425-05-2025
- Let's hope that's not the case. If he retires early, then it may be an era of infighting within UAE.
KerisVroom25-05-2025 - I was a bit worried that he kept following the attacks that he might crack later like how Tadej cracked when he impulsively followed the relaying attacks from Jonas and Primoz in TdF. Luckily, things calmed down later.KerisVroom25-05-2025
- Senna? Fortunately, the vast majority of cyclists and racers are all alive and well, even the most adventurous. There's no need to come out and defend Jonas (and thus indirectly diminish the others) because no one attacks him. I'm simply describing his behavior and describing how those who are afraid of racing usually finish the career. That's all.maria2024202425-05-2025
- If he is going to the Tour, then he should abandon, get some rest, do some altitude training and maybe race the Dauphine before the Tour. Racing is always the best training but the last week of this Giro is going to be hell, no need to take your body down a peg or two when you need some rest already.awp25-05-2025
